Based on what I see at the ranges off sandbags, that would reduce the hunting pressure on the alabama herd by 70-90%.

Liking this caliber so much I got another lighter weight Bergara Mountain rifle to use as a treestand and out west gun. Can’t wait to see how it shoots.

Mighty fine Shaw. Had this 6.5 PRC built this year. Shoots like a dream with 130gr Sierra TGKs pushed hard with H1000.

I’ve taken two does with the HMR Pro so far. I love the way that rifle shoots. The new one shoulders and balances nicely. Be great for those off handed shots when you don’t have a prop.

3 good bucks down with mine so far this year, 2 in Texas, 1 in Bama. Think I’m going to see how Accubonds and TTSXs shoot this spring.

Range report for the Bergara Premiere Mountain Rifle 2.0 is a good one. Took a few shots to get it were I wanted it. That Zeiss I have has 1cm clicks at 100 meters and the turrets adjust bassakwards from my Nightforce. 3 shot group measured 0.68”. I’ll take that with a light weight rifle shooting off a bag any day. I was shooting the same Hornady ELD-X 143gr. I shot out of the HMR Pro.

Shaw, I think that stock on your Mountain is made by AG Composites up in Huntsville.
That's a really nice rifle you've got.

You would be correct. They’re making the stocks for the new Springfield Waypoints also. It’s a very nice stock.

They made the stock on my now discontinued Barrett Fieldcraft, they make a nice product.

Didn’t realize how popular it had become here, got my hands on one yesterday. I wanted a light blend between a bench gun and a hunting rifle to use out west for mule deer and antelope and I’m sucker for calibers that most folks haven’t heard of here. Only had about 15 minutes to get the range setup this afternoon after work and send a few down range but I got it zeroed, will shoot for groups tomorrow. Shooting factory ammo for now, I have 143 ELD-X now, 147 ELD-M coming Sunday, and some 130 ABs from Choice Ammunition coming Thursday.
